Speaker Localization in Reverberant Environments Using Sparse Priors on Acoustic Channels
초록
In this paper, we propose a method for source localization in reverberant environments based on an adaptive eigenvalue decomposition (AED) algorithm which directly estimates channel impulse responses from a speaker to microphones. Unfortunately, the AED algorithm may suffer from whitening effects on channels estimated from temporally correlated natural sounds. The proposed method which applies sparse priors to the estimated channels can avoid the temporal whitening and improve the performance of source localization in reverberant environments. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
